Seafood Foil Packs

Prepare the corn ribs: start by cutting the top off the corn cob, then cut each cob in half. Stand the pieces up and cut them vertically into quarters.

Chef’s Tip: Cutting the corn into ribs ensures it cooks evenly and quickly in the foil packs.

In a large bowl, place 1 piece of fish, about 1/4 lb of mixed seafood, 4 corn ribs, 1/4 cup of cherry tomatoes, 2/3 cup of halved potatoes, and 1/2 cup of chopped kale.

Chef’s Tip: Frozen mixed seafood works well and is an easy way to get variety without purchasing multiple items.

Spoon 1/4 of the spiced oil mixture over the fish and veggies, gently coating everything. Seal the ingredients in a foil pouch.

Assembly Method

Grill or bake the foil packs:
Place the foil packs on the top shelf of the grill or in an oven and cook for 20-25 minutes at 400°F, until the fish is cooked through and the vegetables are hot.
